Dedicated DA9 Q & A thread

ahhk thanks saikou27

yeh because ive got a pioneer head unit so its probably not connected to it..

thanks

If anyone has some OLD Rotors (in Sydney) laying around, can they please Pm me.

I'm just looking for something as cheap as possible to get my brake upgrade going (front Rotors only)

Love you 2G teg people

is the exhaust identical to 2nd gen crx?

Doubt it.

This is a strange graph: Ran it up the other day at MRC.

Was in 3rd gear.

4th gear ran 70.4KW

Power graph is rough, I've seen straighter power curves from turbo cars lol.
Does a weird thing after 4000RPM, like a vtec hit lol.

Stockish exhaust, pod, rest is standard.

Also air fuel ratio is crappy.... starts rich and goes leaner?

I'm thinking an ignition timing issue or something (read everything stuffed).
Thoughts anyone?

Don't need the rotors, cheers guys and gal.

thats pretty good for stock

Isn't running it in 3rd gear going to give an incorrect reading?

Anyone know where to buy decent dot 5 fluid? And any recommendations on brand? Supercheap only sell "super dot 4" I just ordered some project mu pads and have stripped my calipers down in preparation. Hopefully I'll have it all together to test it out on track day next wednesday.

ferodo makes 5.1 fluid.you can order one from repco.ive used them for 2 track days now ,but they performed the same as super dot4 from my experience cant feel any difference.its like 70 bucks a bottle for trade price.
alternatively both lucas and motul rbf600s are pretty good.

I just ended up using the super dot 4. Turns out its the brake booster thats causing the spungy pedal. Pedal is now rock solid when the car is off and a squishy piece of crap as soon as I start it. Anyone know if there are any after market solutions? I really don't want to go second hand and I'm assuming genuine honda is going to cost me my left nut, but I'll give them a call on monday and find out.

y not just disconnect the booster most cars do it thats the purpose of the booster to give pedal assistance

I didn't know that was possible, how hard is it to do? So just to make sure I'm understanding you correctly all the booster does is make the pedal easier to press? Am I going to lose breaking power by removing it?
